Although it remains the most popular edition of Windows used in the world, Windows 10 is gradually being abandoned by Microsoft in favor of the new Windows 11. The tech giant has decided to do away with the old operating system, time is running out for unwavering users. In an attempt to convince Windows 10 resisters to upgrade their PCs, Microsoft has created a new website that highlights the benefits of Windows 11 and provides tips for buying a new computer.
As discovered via Windows Central, the new page signals the end of Windows 10 and its last official day posted by Microsoft on October 14, 2025. As of this date, Windows 10 will no longer receive software updates or security updates.
“Your PC will still work, but we’ll upgrade it to Windows 11,” Microsoft says, before linking to a page called “Discover Windows 11”: “Intuitive navigation. Simple organization. Faster performance. Plus, new features to unleash your productivity and creativity. .
Microsoft also claims that Windows is easier to use, more secure, and better for gaming than Windows 10. Given that the company is opting to end Windows 10, it’s no surprise that it’s looking to move users to Windows 11. Recent statistics recommend that Windows 10 accounts for about 70% of PCs worldwide, far more than the latest software. Maybe other people don’t like the upgrade or don’t want to pay for a new PC.
There’s also a link from the new webpage to a comparison of Windows 11 and Windows 10, highlighting features that Windows 10 lacks. It’s a pretty long list that includes a new user interface, widgets, recommendations in File Explorer and Start menu, password integration, app control, and much more.

There’s also a segment on the site called “How to Buy a Laptop” that includes a computer buying advisor and a multiple-choice quiz designed to help you get a new Windows 11 PC based on your needs. If you recently own a Windows 10 PC, you may be able to upgrade to Windows 11 for free; you can check this in your computer’s Settings app. But if your device is too old or doesn’t have the minimum required specs, you’ll be stuck on Windows 10 for good.
This means that in October 2025, if you need to be fully updated and secure, Microsoft suggests you buy a new computer. The webpage links to a consultant on how to transfer his knowledge “to your new Windows 11 PC” and how to use OneDrive, Microsoft’s cloud garage platform.
“If you plan to continue using your Windows 10 PC, we understand,” Microsoft says. “While the deadline for Windows 10 probably won’t come until October 2025, we recommend that you keep your files up to date and available seamlessly on all devices that use OneDrive. “
Last week, Microsoft announced a new generation of Windows computers called “Copilot” PCs. They use processors made through Qualcomm called the Snapdragon X Plus and X Elite, which promise vastly improved performance, battery life, and synthetic intelligence.
